WWALS Watershed Coalition advocates for conservation and stewardship of the Withlacoochee, Willacoochee, Alapaha, Little, and Suwannee River watersheds in south Georgia and north Florida through education, awareness, environmental monitoring, and citizen activities.

Asked for comment, Atlanta Gas Light issued the following statement
Monday: “We have received | the Georgia Public Service
Commission Staff’s investigation report associated with the August
2018 incident in Homerville, Georgia. The Company will review and
respond to the report in accordance with the Commission’s
procedures.”

The Times reached out to USIC for comment, but phone calls and
emails had not been answered by press time.

Meanwhile, Tom Krause,
Public Information Officer,
Georgia Public Service Commission,
has provided this clarification:

AGL did not properly mark or locate the gas line and the sewer line.
As a result, the gas did travel through the sewer pipe as originally discussed.

Krause also sent more information, which will be in another blog post.
